Of executive selection. This Is the rea-
son Why this usurpation is repeatedly At
tBnnpted. Spoilsmen and ROSTERS are
Isss able 70 dictate and control appoint
ments since the people became more ex-
acttng in their demands for the con-
cenfraxion and enf0sceznent of execu-
tive responsibility. So they try to at
tain their ends by Legislative usurpation
Of the power Of appointment.
The motives Of these attempts is an
excellent reason for resisting them to
the utmost, not only by public sup
port OF conscientious PRESIDENTS rgov-
ernors who refuse to make the Offices
within their gift the prey of the office
seekers, but by sealing with the con-
Of public opinion all bills that
propose to vest in legislative bodies
the power to fill offices not directly re-
lated to their own organization and SER
vice. Every such bill furnishes addi-
tional proof that executive authority I'M
der our institutions responds more read
ily to enlightened public opinion than do
legislative bodies in general There
should be no encroachments on the pow
er executives who are directly RESPONSE
BILE to the people.

The Cost of Peace.

We often hear of the cost of war. We
do not 80 often hear of the cost of peace.
The Pdris, a trustworthy journal of the
French capital, has just published some
figures that represent current European
outlay for its ornaments. and these we
lay before our readers in another col
umn.
No wonder that the nations which are
forced to pay for all this monstrous array
are in constant danger of finding il put
to active use, and no wonder the people
who groan under such terrible burdens
should get to think that any possible
change must be for the better.
In the United States the cost Of peace
is happily far cheaper; and this is one
reason among many that help to make
the condition of our people so much
more enviable than that Of their breth-
rem in Europe. We do not need to add
to the cost of peace by any serious in
crease of our army; but it must be
owned that our assurance of lasting
tranquility will be firmer than it was
when we get decent navy and and pro-
vide adequate defences for our great sea
coast cities.

why Brooks Quit Playing whist

II was during the Last hand that the

bled nervously several seconds, undeci-
ded which card to- play. Evidently she

considering whether, if she led the
trump, she would FIND. the thirteenth i'm

not better to lead the odd suit card, al
lowing her partners trump, if he held
1t, to fall, thus securing the game. I'm

a good player might be forgiven for
slight delay, but after fumbling several
seconds longer the lady laid both cards

Mr.. Brooks left the table. rushed to the
hall and quilted the house without the

MANY UNSETTLED QUESTIONS.
The Western Railroads Complaining and
tho south Waiting.
New York Times, 9th.

The Western Railroads Com plaining and
the south Waiting.
New York Times, 9th.
The East has settled il, the West is
kicking, and the South is waiting for
further developments" That was the
way a railroad officer yesterday put the
ease of the railroads of the country and
their views Of what ought to be done to
meet the requirements Of the Interstate
commerce law. There were some differ
ences of opinion among the trunk line
managers and the representatives of the
Central Traffic Association when they
met in this city last week, but they were
harmonious when compared with the
conflicting ideas cherished by the West
ern companies. Intense rivalry, the long
hauls over sparsely settled and therefore
unremunerative districts, and the I'M
willingness to yield q point manifested
reasons Tor the Western disagreements.
Until the rest of the companies make up
their minds concerning the policy to be
allowed the Southern roads are content
to wait.
A call has been issued for meeting Of
the Presidents Of the trunk lines at Com
missioner Fink's office, and it will be
held within "A week il the heads Of the
companies can be assembled within that
time. The action of this conference will
be the last step to be taken by the trunk
lines and their allies before the law goes
into effect.
III. p. Clark, of the Associated South
ern Roads, said yesterday that the COM
panies he represents had held q meeting
in Washington, but had not yet an
nounced their arrangements for doing
business under the new order of things.
They were yet waiting to get the results
Of Northern meetings, for their roads,
doing . smaller business than the lines
at the North, would naturally TALL in
with the procession which the roads in
this part Of the country would head. A
uniform policy all around is something
to be greatly desired by the companies.
Florida traffic is now heavy, and the
roads leading there are getting the cream
of the seasons travel. The rush South
will probably continue until the end Of
the month, and after that the people who
fled from the North to escape the March
gales will begin to move homeward. Ex-
cursions have always been q feature Of
the Southern business and the effect Of
the new law upon them is one Of the
problems which greatly interest the
roads. Mr.. Clark believes, however. that
they will be continued.

Encroaehments ON Executive Power.
Philadelphia Times.


Philadelphia Times.
There's seems to be q growing tendency
en- the part Of Legislative bodies to usurp
the appointing power Of the Executive,
not only by individual pressure, hut in .
collective and official capacity, through
the enactment of laws vesting the choice
of incumbents of various offices in the
enacting bodies themselves. During the
late session Of Congress there was . de-
ter1nined effort to deprive the President
of the right and duty of appointing the
proposed ordnance hoard by giving each
branch of Congress the power to appoint
one of its five members, the two thus Sc
lected to appoint third and the Presi-
dent to be allowed to choose the minority
of two. The same sort Of attempt is
under way in the Pennsylvania Legisla-
tures the Republican caucus anti-discrim-
nation bill providing for three railroad
commissioners. one of whom Is to be APP
pointed by the Governor, one by the SEN
ate and ONE by the House of Representa-
tives-
Now this sort Of thing is all wrong,
and the sooner there is an understanding
to that effect, both in national and State
capitals the better. Presilents and Gov
errors are elected to exercise the appcint-
ing power, and are held directly reuuoa-
sible for the manner and results a IN
exercise.
There are comparatively few executive
chieftains who do not administer this
power better than il would be adnin-
istefed by the Legislative bodies to which
they are coordinate, and comparatively
few such bodies are Wiling, even &
able. to improve ON the average standard

Protecting Alabama Oysters.

The new law to protect oyster culture
in Alabama, requires that all persons
taking oysters. except for planting. shall
Gull them before leaving the reefs, and
throw overheard all oysters that are too
small or unfit for market. The penalty
for the first violation of the act is a fine
of not less than $50, or more than 800;
for each subsequent offense the jury
may impose hard labor for the county
not to exceed twelve months, in addition
to the fine.

The route which the Palatka, Welaka

passing through the town has been fixed
1t is said, and the Surveyor are busily
engaged working towards the point
where they will tap the Jacksonville,
Tampa and Key West. The Welakites
are coming out bravely with assistance,
and many good business heads prove, by
liberal subscriptions. that they know
when to lay money out in order to reap
good interest.
There is a general activity in the town.
The prospects have put new life into the
place. The citizens no longer greet one
another as Of yore. but each good day
ne Ems to come as though they meant it,
and one can almost hear the running ac-
companiment inside the man. ''there's a

We noticed that copies Of the DAILY

The are a few complaints of scarcity
Of bloom in the groves in the district, but
those which we have seen are loaded.
There are few things more pleasing to
the sense Of the beautiful than an orange

Mr.. George Glover and Mr.. C. o. Gas

No need now for the crier to howl for the
